Description: |
|
Sunnyside is located in South Central Washington. It is about 30 miles south of Yakima, and 40 miles north of the Tri-Cities. We are located in the wine country with the Yakima and Columbia River in our backyard.
Boasting one of the state's first irrigation projects of more then 1,000 acres, Sunnyside is known as the asparagus capital of the Northwest. It is situated in the Yakima River Valley, in Yakima County, midway between Yakima and the Tri Cities.
Yakima County centers on the Yakima Valley and extends from the summits of the Cascades to within a few dozen miles of the Columbia. The county seat and largest city on the east slope is Yakima, whose prominence is due to a decision of the railways in the last century. The former chief point, also originally called Yakima, became Union Gap. Other major communities include Sunnyside and Toppenish, headquarters for the Yakama Indian Nation.
Between the western and eastern ends of the county, there is a climatic shift to very dry conditions typical of the Columbia Basin in Eastern Washington. Source: Some of the above adapted from Online Highways.
